Capital Queers (The Alex Reynolds Series) Book

In Fred Hunter's third Alex Reynolds mystery, Alex and his lover, Peter, join forces to determine why their dear friends Mason and Ryan have been murdered. Mason's doll collection, which he had threatened to bequeath to Alex, was found in shattered pieces surrounding his mutilated body. The attack seemed not only personal, but weirdly ritualistic. Not a week later, Mason's partner, Ryan, was discovered in the same room of their apartment in much the same condition. An impromptu visit from State Department investigators, who seem to think that Alex and Peter have come into possession of a mysterious object at the core of the murder case, inspires them to search out the origins of Mason's latest doll, which he had purchased on a visit to our nation's capital shortly before his death. With the help, as ever, of Alex's intrepid British mum, and about equal portions of help and hindrance from the police and the CIA, Alex and Peter undertake a perilous journey into an Eastern religious subculture, vowing justice for their murdered friends. Capital Queers is slightly spooky and genuinely fun. --Regina Marler Read More

  • Product Description

    Alex Reynolds is not what one could reasonably call a "dog person"---although his mother, Jean, and his lover, Peter Livesay, most assuredly are. So when their friends Mason and Ryan need someone to care for their beloved West Highland Terrier, the only one who isn't thrilled is Alex himself. But the long week is over, Mason and Ryan have returned from their trip to Washington, and to Alex's relief, it is time to return Muffin (!).

    But Alex's relief is short-lived. Ryan comes home one day to find Mason brutally murdered, Mason's doll collection destroyed, and the house thoroughly searched. Shortly thereafter, Ryan is also murdered. Now, in addition to the rest of the consequences of their untimely deaths, Alex has the one thing he never wanted---custody of Muffin. Given the state of the house and the brutality of the murders, Alex is sure that someone out there thought that the couple had something specific---something that they wanted badly enough to kill for twice.

    Alex, unfortunately, could not be more right. The killers now mistakenly believe that, in addition to inheriting their friends' annoying dog, Alex and his family have the missing artifact. And they are more than willing to kill again if it isn't returned very soon.
